4 City of Fort Collins, Colorado Video Detection System Scope of Proposal Econolite Control Products, Inc. is pleased to present the City of Fort Collins, Traffic Operations Department with its response to the Video Detection System RFP, Number Econolite believes we have assembled a team, which has the experience and qualifications to support the City in their development of a standardized video detection installation strategy, over the next five years. The contract will be renewable in one-year increments for up to a total of 5 years. The following proposal provides a description of the equipment and services intended to fulfill the requirements outlined in this RFP. Background Project Understanding The City of Fort Collins maintains 178 traffic signals, 30 pedestrian signals, 2 pedestrian hybrid beacons, and 5 emergency vehicle signals. The City has used many different types of detection over the years and will standardize future video detection installations as part of this project. Currently there are 59 traffic signals with video detection, 24 intersections with a hybrid of inductive loop and video detection, 82 intersections with inductive loops and 13 with no detection (fixed time operation). The video detection systems in use today are Econolite (62 locations) and Traficon (21 locations). The traffic signal communication system primarily uses Ethernet based communications through a combination of fiber optic cabling and wireless access points/bridges. Proposed Solution Econolite has proposed a technology solution and assembled a support team, which includes systems that are considered state-of-the-art in the Intelligent Transportation Systems industry. This response proposes the use of the Autoscope Solo Terra video vehicle detection system. The Autoscope system would allow the City of Fort Collins to adopt an installation plan, which would accommodate its immediate short-term needs, as well as establish a foundation to meet its needs for the upcoming five years, and beyond. The success of a project as the one being proposed depends on building of a strong relationship with the team involved. To support its commitment to the City and the success of the project, Econolite proposes to use Dan Schoenecke, the longstanding Account Manager for the City of Fort Collins as the Project Manager. Well known by City staff, Dan will act as the City s extended staff to manage and support procurement of infrastructure assets, installation, system integration, and critical training programs for City personnel. A major objective of the video detection system, as proposed, is to provide accurate signal actuation, but also have the capability to manage traffic counting and vehicle classification as part of the City s entire traffic management strategy. With the established vehicle detection capabilities inherent in Autoscope, the City will be able to call on the system to aggregate a multitude of rich traffic information, along with industry standards-based remote communications interconnect provided using TCP/IP network protocols over Ethernet based networks. We have taken great pride in our careful attention to addressing the City s needs in this proposal, and look forward to the opportunity of working with you. 4

5 City of Fort Collins, Colorado Video Detection System Scope of Work The Video Detection System shall feature a least-intrusive system and be reliable, consistent, and proven to out-perform other detection methods. The detection system shall support the standard Ethernet networking of system components through a variety of infrastructures that are commercially available to the traffic industry. The detection system shall be capable of providing cumulative traffic statistics including static detection, volume, occupancy, classification, and speed on an internal embedded nonvolatile memory. Additionally, the system shall provide dynamic system surveillance with real-time video streaming of cameras on the dedicated traffic communication network. In response to the City of Fort Collins Video Detection System RFP, Econolite will provide the Autoscope Solo Terra video detection system, which monitors vehicles on a roadway via processing of video images. The detection of vehicles passing through the field-of-view of an image sensor is made available to the traffic controller, following simple contact closure outputs that reflect the current real-time detector or alarm states (on/off) or as summary traffic statistics that are reported locally or remotely. Autoscope Video Image Processor The Machine Vision Processor (MVP) sensor integrates a color CCD imager array with zoom lens optics and high-speed dual-core image processor into a sealed enclosure. The dual-core processor provides high-quality video for detection that has virtually no noise to degrade detection performance, and directly controls the CCD array functions. During setup, the integrated 22x zoom lens is set from the traffic cabinet as required to meet the detection objectives during operation. The MVP sensor provides direct real-time iris and shutter speed control for optimum detection performance in all weather and lighting conditions. The digital streaming video output and all data communications shall be transmitted over the 3-wires-only power cable. The MVP sensor operates on 110/220 VAC, 50/60Hz at a maximum of 15 watts. Clear ision features include the integral sunshield that helps keep extraneous light from the cameras lens, a proportion ITO heater that keeps the faceplate from fogging, and a hydrophilic coating that helps reduce maintenance visits for cleaning the faceplate. The MVP housing is a sealed aluminum barrel and shall not require pressurization. Econolite has shipped over 100,000 cameras since the introduction of the Autoscope product line in 1992 and very small number have been pressurized. 5

6 City of Fort Collins, Colorado Video Detection System Video outputs include JPEG video images, standard MPEG-4 digital streaming video, and analog video with flashing detector overlay from the detector port master. Placement of detection zones is by means of a PC with a Windows XP or Vista operating system, a keyboard, and a mouse. The PC monitor will show the detection zones superimposed on images from the camera of the traffic scene. The detection zones are drawn with a mouse on the PC monitor. Either the mouse or keyboard can be used to place, size, and orient detection zones for optimal road coverage and vehicle detection. This same technique edits previously defined detector configurations to adjust the detection zone size and placement, to add detectors for additional traffic applications, or to reprogram the MVP sensor for different traffic applications, a change in the lane geometry, or when rerouting traffic. By uploading the detector configuration to the PC from the MVP sensor, it is possible to review the detector configuration that is currently running in the MVP sensor or to back up the detector configuration on the PC fixed disks or other removable storage media. Although optimal detection may be obtained when the MVP sensor is mounted directly above the traveled lanes on a signal mast arm, the MVP sensor may also be placed on corner poles and luminaire arms across from or to the side of the detection area. The MVP sensor may view either approaching or receding traffic or both within the same field of view. The preferred MVP sensor orientation views approaching traffic since there are more high contrast features on vehicles as viewed from the front rather than the rear or side. An MVP sensor placed at a mounting height that minimizes vehicle occlusion by other vehicles can simultaneously monitor a maximum of six (6) traffic lanes when mounted at the road-side or up to eight (8) traffic lanes when mounted in the center with four lanes on each side. Performance Requirements To ensure that the installed Autoscope system is performing to the specifications and requirements of the City, Econolite provides a formalized Acceptance Test Plan process, which will be used after key system installations. This plan has been designed to provide a thorough verification that the video detection equipment has been installed to the specifications of the City, is setup for optimal detection performance, and meets functional specifications as detailed in the contract requirements, as related to vehicle detection and data collection strategies. Please reference Appendix 3 Autoscope Solo Terra, Field Installation Acceptance Test Plan for more detailed information regarding the acceptance test plan process. 6

9 City of Fort Collins, Colorado Video Detection System Communication Requirements The Autoscope Solo Terra system hardware consists of three components: 1) a color, 22x zoom, Machine Vision Processor (MVP) video sensor, 2) a modular cabinet interface unit or detector port master, and 3) a communication interface panel. Real-time performance can be viewed on the video output from the sensor with overlaid flashing detectors to indicate the current detection state (on/off). The MVP sensor can store cumulative traffic statistics internally in non-volatile memory for later retrieval and analysis. The MVP communicates with to the detector port master through the communications interface panel and the software applications using a standard TCP/IP network protocol. The MVP sensor has a built-in, Ethernet-ready, Internet Protocol (IP) address and shall be addressable with no plug-in cards or converters required. The MVP sensor provides standard MPEG-4 RTSP streaming digital video. Achievable frame rates shall vary from 5 to 30 frames/sec as a function of video quality and available bandwidth. The detector port master communicates directly with up to eight (8) MVP sensors and has the form factor and electrical characteristics to plug directly into a NEMA type C or D detector rack. This unit provides up to thirty-two (32) inputs to the MVP sensor and sixty-four (64) outputs to the NEMA TS2 Type 1 or 2 traffic signal controller. The communication interface panel provides four (4) terminations for the 3-wires only power cables from up to eight (8) MVP sensors on the pole or mast arm. The communication interface panel provides high-energy transient protection to electrically protect the traffic cabinet and other MVP sensors. The communications interface panel provides a single-point Ethernet connection for standard Category-5 Ethernet cable to other devices or a laptop. Figure 1: Autoscope Solo Terra Cabinet Configuration 9

10 City of Fort Collins, Colorado Video Detection System Solo Terra camera/processor: With the latest dual-core processor integrated with the sensor, the horsepower and speed of the video detection system is greatly enhanced thus allowing us to offer the highest level of reliability and accuracy for detection and data collection. In addition, having the dual-core processor integrated to the camera allows instantaneous control of the iris and shutter speed for each individual sensor. This makes for the best possible detection in inclement weather, shadows, and sunrise/sunset. The camera also provides a 22x auto zoom/auto focus to facilitate easy setup of the required field of view needed. The zooming of the system is done on the ground, in the cabinet, and not in the bucket (truck). 3-Wire installation: The video detection system uses three-wires-only, cabling and a fieldinstallable, reusable, connector. Since this connector is field installable in the bucket truck, the cable may be pulled from either the top or the bottom of the pole. Most significantly, no coaxial cabling is needed digital video and data communications are all transmitted over the three wires only cable. This will significantly reduce the installation time and cost. This is adventitious when trying to retrofit an existing intersection that might have existing unused signal cable in the conduit. By using 3 unused wires, we are able to connect the camera to the cabinet and have detection, data, communications, and streaming video all over the 3 wires. Terra Interface Panel (TIP): The Autoscope Solo Terra Interface Panel (TIP) provides a robust Autoscope EasyLink connection point in the cabinet for communicating with the Solo Terra video detection sensors. The TIP supports three wires only, (#2) cabling to the sensors, an interface to the Terra Access Point (TAP) (#4) and a standard Ethernet connection for a networked system (#5). Each TIP can accommodate up to 8 sensors. The TIP and the TAP (#4) are the only components in the cabinet thus retrofitting an existing cabinet with video detection is an easy task, due to the limited number of components needed to be installed in the cabinet. Terra Access Point (TAP): The Autoscope Solo Terra Access Point (TAP) outputs vehicle detection calls to any traffic controller. Point-and-click I/O assignments quickly configure the interface to the traffic controller. The same TAP can be used with TS2 SDLC communications, along with and simultaneously, in a TS1 or Caltrans 332 cabinet. Networking Connection: Many customers and consultants, due to its simplistic, yet powerful communications architecture design, have referred to the Autoscope Solo Terra system as a network device. With just 1-single CAT5 connection to the Terra Interface Panel (TIP #3), the user can access up to eight (8) Autoscope Solo Terra cameras via the Internet AND also stream MPEG-4 quality video from all 8 cameras simultaneously! NO EXTRA hardware (encoders, decoders, video platforms) is needed. Standard MPEG-4 streaming video comes with every video detection sensor product, which means you can watch the video detection anywhere, as long as there is a network connection to the cabinet. The embedded web server capability is a convenience to users who do not have the video detection software suite on their PC. The software can be used either at the traffic cabinet or from home, while monitoring the traffic system. 10

11 City of Fort Collins, Colorado Video Detection System Image Sensor Cable Autoscope Solo Terra uses the new 3-wires-only system for connecting power and communications between the cabinet and the camera. A system that does not require individual coaxial cable and power cables, and only needs three (3) wires, housed in a single cable, is a major breakthrough for the traffic control industry. The City of Fort Collins would gain the immediate advantage of reduced installation and maintenance time and effort when the 3-wiresonly system is adopted. There is an added benefit to using the three (3) wires; the wires can also be any available spare signal wires, which eliminate the hassle of pulling new cable through existing conduit. Figure 5: Autoscope Solo Terra"3-wires-only" cable Common Autoscope Terra Assembly in Traffic Control Cabinet The following picture illustrates the Autoscope Solo Terra system installed in both a 33X cabinet and a NEMA cabinet. You will notice that the City of Fort Collins and its field crews will only have to learn and maintain two (2) components: Terra Interface Panel (TIP) see description in above section Terra Access Point (TAP) see description in above section An Ethernet network back to the TMC and installing a CAT-5 cable from the Terra Interface Panel (TIP) to the communication infrastructure will provide the City of Fort Collins with the ability to stream, and view the MPEG-4 video at their TMC, also continuously poll each camera for data, and perform detection simultaneously. This single CAT-5 cable will allow data and video transmission for up to eight (8) cameras in each intersection. Every camera is supplied STANDARD, from the factory, with Ethernet capabilities. No additional electronic cards or devices are required to connect Autoscope Solo Terra to a network. 11

12 City of Fort Collins, Colorado Video Detection System Normal Operations The detection system shall be able to emulate at least the following detector types simultaneously: Stop-line detector, presence detector, advance detection, speed trap detector, count detector, and vehicle classification (5 levels) detector. The camera shall output full motion color video. Autoscope Detection System Data Collection The Autoscope system detects, calculates, and collects user-specified traffic data including: Time MS Time of Day data where collected. Average Flow Rate Average Flow Rate, in vehicles counted per hour. Total Volume Count Total number of vehicles that have passed through the selected detector during the time interval. Arithmetic Mean Speed average speed of all vehicles passing through a specified Speed detector during the polling interval (reported in km/h or mi/h). The average speed is calculated as a time-average-speed. Vehicle Class Count A through E number of vehicles classified by five (5) user-defined lengths. Average Time Headway average number of seconds from leading edge of a vehicle to leading edge of the following vehicle. Average Time Occupancy percentage of time vehicles occupy a detector in a Measurement Interval. Level of Service Indicates a roadway s traffic capacity. Each roadway is constructed to accommodate different levels of traffic, measured by speed or flow/capacity. Depending on its design, the roadway s performance is graded at different traffic levels, from optimum ( A ) to ineffective ( F ). Space Mean Speed average speed of all vehicles occupying a given section of highway over some specified time period. To compute SMS, the distance is divided by an average travel time. Space Occupancy Percentage space on a stretch of roadway that is occupied by vehicles at a given point in time. Typically, the stretch of roadway may be 1 Km; since the video camera has a shorter view of the roadway, the video processor provides an estimate of the Space Occupancy. Density Lists density value. Density or concentration is the number of vehicles per lane traveling over a unit length of highway at an instant in time. It is calculated as a number of vehicles on a road at an instant in time, divided by the distance between two points. Interval Occupancy each occupancy interval is a maximum time interval during which one or more vehicles are in the region of interest. Interval Net Time Gap Sum of the individual net time gaps of the detector over the same interval. Net Time Gap Net time gap from the previous vehicle to the detected vehicle, in milliseconds. Vehicle Length Length of vehicle. Vehicle Distance Inter-vehicle distance between two vehicles on a roadway. 12

13 City of Fort Collins, Colorado Video Detection System Embedded Software Operation Autoscope Solo Terra Software Suite The Machine Vision Processor (MVP) sensor s embedded software incorporates multiple applications that perform a variety of diagnostics, installation, fault tolerant operations, data communications, digital video streaming, and vehicle detection processing. Vehicle detection is reliable, consistent, and performs under all weather, lighting, and traffic congestion levels. An embedded web server permits standard Internet browsers to connect and perform basic configuration, maintenance, and video streaming services. A suite of client applications operates on the host PC or laptop with the Microsoft Windows XP or Vista operating systems. The applications include: Master Network Browser: Learns network of Autoscope devices and MVP sensors, displays basic information, and launches application software for one of those devices. Configuration Setup: Create and modify detector configurations on the MVP sensor or detector port master. Operation Log: Retrieve, display, and save run-time operation logs of special events for assistance in maintenance and troubleshooting. Software Install: Reconfigure one or more MVP sensors with a newer release of embedded system software. Streaming Video Player: Play and record streaming video with overlaid flashing detectors that show detection events. Data Retrieval: Fetch once or poll for traffic data and alarms for storage on a PC. Communications Server: Provide fault-tolerant, real-time TCP/IP communications to all devices and client applications with full logging capability for systems integration and maintenance. Autoscope Solo Terra Software Suite (Autoscope CommServer Software) On the software application side of the network, the Autoscope system integrates into existing traffic management center networks through a client-server relationship. A communications server application provides the data communications interface between as few as one, to as many as hundreds of MVP sensors, and a number of client applications on workstations. The client applications either can be hosted on the same PC as the communications server or may be distributed over a local area network of personal computers (PCs) using the industry standard TCP/IP network protocol. Multiple client applications may execute simultaneously on the same host or multiple host computers, depending on the network configuration. Additionally, a web browser interface allows use of simple industry-standard Internet web browsers to connect to MVP sensors for easy setup, maintenance, and digital streaming video viewing. Each Autoscope Solo Terra device independently supports video streams to multiple clients, making it a turnkey solution for a small or single site installation. The Autoscope Solo Terra also integrates well into a larger, more structured network environment where security, access control, and bandwidth monitoring are key concerns. It is Econolite s recommendation to use a media server network configuration to replicate or relay a single media input stream to 13

14 City of Fort Collins, Colorado Video Detection System multiple video clients. With multiple media servers placed at the City network operations center, the City can realize the following benefits: Networking The Autoscope system architecture fully supports Ethernet networking of system components through a variety of industry standard and commercially available infrastructure applications that are used in the traffic industry. The data communications supports direct connect, Ethernet link, and multi-drop interconnects. Simple, standard Ethernet wiring is supported to minimize overall system cost and improve reliability, utilizing existing infrastructure and ease of system installation and maintenance. Both streaming video and data communications can be interconnected over long distances through fiber optic, microwave, and other commonly used digital communications transport configurations. Data Characteristics and Storage The video detection system shall provide summary traffic statistics including volume, occupancy, and speed, which can be retrieved remotely or locally via embedded nonvolatile memory, that have at least eight (8) megabytes for traffic data storage. Autoscope Data Collector The Autoscope Data Collector application polls and transfers, real-time data from the Autoscope machine vision processor to a computer, which runs the Autoscope suite of detection applications. The Data Collector application is also able to poll for persistent data, or provides a continuous data collection feed. Accessing data collected by Autoscope is provided using the Network Browser Data menu. You may view the data in the listed folders. Data records are saved in.txt file format that may be opened and formatted in any word processor or spreadsheet software for viewing and analysis. The Autoscope MVP has 12.5 Megabytes of nonvolatile memory for storing data; depending on detector file setup, it is common to store 30 to 60 days worth of data for later retrieval.

33 Autoscope Solo Terra Field Installation Acceptance Test Plan REF: Project Specify Project Info I. Purpose This document provides a formalized Acceptance Test Plan to commission intersections where Autoscope Solo Terra Video Detection Systems have been installed. This plan has been designed to provide a thorough verification of VID system equipment physical installation, setup, and functional performance that can be accomplished within a time frame that is manageable and reasonable. It is recommended that the Contractor refer to the latest version of the Autoscope Solo Terra Installation Guide, P/N , available from Econolite Inc for detailed installation Solo Terra Video Detection information. It is expected that the full installation, wiring, and system set up will be completed prior to the date of the Acceptance test. The Acceptance Test Plan would be implemented by Econolite Inc personnel or designated representatives, along with representatives of the Contractor and Project Engineer, as appropriate, in accordance with the project specifications. Econolite shall submit five (5) copies of this Plan to the Contractor for submittal to the Engineer for review and approval prior to commencement of any testing. The Contractor shall notify Econolite of the Engineer s authorization to proceed with testing at least two business weeks prior to the commencement of the test. II. Pre Acceptance Test Overview and Information This section provides an informational overview of the Autoscope Solo Terra Video Detection System. See Figure 1 System Diagram - below. 1. Autoscope Solo Terra Machine Vision Processors (MVPs) operate on 120VAC. Cabling consists of a 3-conductor #18 stranded cable, with a polyethylene jacket. Econolite P/N is recommended. A special EasyLock connector (see Figure 3 below) is field-terminated by the Contractor on the camera end of each MVP cable. The connector and instructions for installation are provided inside each Autoscope Solo Terra shipping box, and can also be found in the Autoscope Solo Terra Installation Guide. 2. Autoscope Solo Terra is an Ethernet-based system, and uses Broadband-Over-Power technology for video and data transmission from the Solo Terra MVPs mounted on the poles to the Terra Interface Panel (TIP) inside the traffic cabinet. See Figure 1 below. 3. A laptop PC with Ethernet port, and an Ethernet crossover cable (or Ethernet switch) are needed for setup and programming of Autoscope Solo Terra systems E. La Palma Ave Anaheim, CA PH: (714) FAX: (714) P.O. Box 6150 Anaheim, CA Page 1 of 7

34 Figure 1 Diagram of Autoscope Solo Terra system components 4. Installation-related items that will be checked as part of the Physical Inspection phase of the Acceptance Test Plan: a. Proper Solo Terra MVP camera mounting and placement b. Quality cabling and splicing techniques used for cable runs from Solo Terra MVPs back to the cabinet c. Proper labeling of MVP cables entering the cabinet - Identify each incoming branch cable using colored tape, labels, etc. Start by identifying the cable from the Solo Terra MVP viewing Phases 2 and 5, and label its cable as #1. Continue clockwise around the intersection, labeling cables 2, 3, and 4. If there are more than 4 cameras at the intersection, label the additional cables using the same basic convention, as 5 and 6, etc. d. Proper stripping and terminating of cables to the Terra Interface Panel (TIP). Ensuring that the 4 MVP 120VAC power switches are in the OFF (0) position, terminate cables 1 through 4 to their respective terminals. If there are more than 4 Solo Terra MVPs at the intersection, terminate MVPs numbered 1 and 5, 2 and 6, etc together under the appropriate compression terminals E.

35 3-Conductor cable to each Terra MVP Figure 2 - EasyLock Connector field-terminated at each Solo Terra MVP (no special tools required) Figure 3 Terra Interface Panel (TIP) Procedure for setting Solo Terra MVP Zoom during installation In order to zoom the Terra MVP cameras, it is necessary to view video from each MVP, in turn, and adjust the camera zoom. To accomplish this in an Ethernet (IP) system, temporary IP addresses must be set for the MVPs and the TAP. The following procedure temporarily sets the IP addresses and facilitates setting the zoom of the camera. This must be done in conjunction with physical mounting of the Terra MVP on the pole or luminaire arm, so that the installer in the bucket truck can make any necessary horizontal and vertical adjustments to achieve the desired Field of View. Selecting Video for Aiming and Setting Camera Zoom (First Time Installation) TAP Learn Once field cabling and MVP mounting is complete, and cabinet cables are in place, the following procedure is the recommended method to view video from each camera and set camera aim. It is recommended that the field cables be terminated to the TIP in a preset order; 3360 E. La Palma Ave Anaheim, CA PH: (714) FAX: (714) P.O. Box 6150 Anaheim, CA Page 3 of 7

36 for example, terminate the cable from the MVP viewing Phase 2, followed by Phase 4, then Phase 6, then Phase Make sure the intersection Terra hardware is isolated not connected to any external Ethernet network. 2. Connect a video monitor (or equivalent) to the Video Output port of the TAP. Do not power up the TAP yet. 3. Switch OFF the four 120VAC power switches on the TIP. (place switches in the 0 position) 4. Power up the Terra Access Point (TAP). Wait approximately 2 minutes for the TAP to boot up. 5. TAP Learn Once the TAP boots up, it begins to look for Autoscope Terra units on its local network. You can view its TAP Learn results on the video monitor. a. Turn ON the TIP power switch for MVP number 1. (place switch in the 1 position) b. Wait approximately 30 seconds. Turn ON the TIP power switch for MVP number 2. c. Wait approximately 30 seconds. Turn ON the TIP power switch for MVP number 3 d. Wait 30 seconds and turn ON the TIP power switch for MVP number 4 6. As each MVP powers up in order, the TAP will learn it, and assign it a temporary IP address. This temporary IP address will allow the Terra MVP to stream video to the TAP s Video OUT port and to the monitor during the zooming and aiming process. 7. Once all Terra MVPs have been learned, proceed with aiming and zooming, as recommended. 8. If the intersection is not to be connected to an existing Agency network, the default IP addresses can be made permanent during the MVP setup process. If the Terra hardware is to be connected to an Ethernet network, IP addresses can be changed during setup to match those assigned by the Network Administrator. 9. Run the Setup Wizard from the Autoscope Network Browser to configure the Solo Terra MVPs, AND the TAP. Note that the TAP has a Detector Port Configuration tab in the Properties Editor. This is where a list is created of the Solo Terra MVP units that the TAP should poll for detector outputs. III. Acceptance Test A.
